Pet Sounds - All The Beach Boys meeting the Elepants

Taken at the legendary shoot at San Diego Zoo on February 10th, 1966 by George Jerman for the timeless Pet Sounds album. In this shot Bruce Johnston, who was present for the entire shoot, is pictured with the band. This shoot was a conscious effort to reflect the style of the mid 60s with the clean cut hairlines, striped and plaid shirts giving way to more contemporary clothes and hairstyles that reflected the band's evolution beyond just surfing music and embracing the emerging California music sound.
